>"It says a lot about the general attitude of Chinese people" in the context of a story about fraud is obvious flamebait.
The context is fraud in China. The context involves multiple people from all walks of life and society in China contributing to the fraud. A stark contrast to how corruption occurs in the states. I don't think it's obvious flamebait at all. The definition of what is flamebait itself is rather vague..
A good way to definitively define flamebait is to call it any comment which starts a flamewar.
This means a definitive classification of flamebait can only be crystallized after the posting of the comment in question and observing the resulting aftermath...
In this case I see no flamewar, so I don't believe my comment constitutes as such.
